NEWTON GOLF Company (Nasdaq: SPGC) has release of its latest innovation – the advanced Newton Motion shafts designed specifically for golfers with higher swing speeds.. Building on the success of the original Newton Motion shafts, which feature a flex system ranging from the most flexible shaft at 1-dot to the stiffest at 6-dots, the company says new driver and fairway woods shafts extend the flex scale with the introduction of 6.5-dot and 7-dot options.
The new models have been engineered to meet the demands of elite players, including professionals on the PGA Tour, Korn Ferry Tour, and Champions Tour, as well as top collegiate golfers. Newton Golf says each shaft is tailored to offer precise control, enhanced feel, and greater performance for high-speed swings.
Detailed specifications for the new shafts are as follows:
- 6.5-DOT: 300 cpm, 3.4 Torque, 76g, designed for swing speeds of 110-120 mph
- 7-DOT: 320 cpm, 3.1 Torque, 79g, designed for swing speeds exceeding 120 mph
“We have developed new advanced Newton Motion shafts for high swing speed golfers, based on our work with professionals and top collegiate players,” said Greg Campbell, executive chairman of Newton Golf Company. “The Newton Motion shafts have already generated huge interest, and we are exceeding our sales targets. This new product offering completes our portfolio of shafts for all golfers, and we look forward to even more growth.”
The Newton Motion shafts have quickly gained traction among top players on the PGA Tour Champions, including Doug Barron – who won his first major championship with the Newton Motion Shaft in his driver – in addition to John Daly, Clark Dennis, Chris DiMarco, Ken Duke, Fred Funk, Colin Montgomerie, Mark O’Meara, Tim Petrovic, and Duffy Waldorf.
Using the Company’s proprietary shaft design and construction, the Newton Motion shafts feature four essential technologies:
- Elongated Bend Profile
- Kinetic Storage Construction
- Newton Symnetry 360 Design
- Variable Bend Profile
Available now for $275 each, the shafts are sold “ready to play” and include the shaft adapter and grip. The grip is a Lamkin Crossline 360, and there are adapter options to choose from that fit most driver heads.
The Newton shafts are manufactured in the Company’s St. Joseph, MO., manufacturing facility.
